Great walking tour with Olga
We had a really nice tour with Olga. She was very informative and flexible with our schedule. I would highly recommend using her as a tour guide in Amsterdam. Also her English was perfect. :)

Amsterdam is Awesome
We have been fortunate to participate in many, many tours. There is a huge difference between a generic tour guide and a host. In addition to possessing a passion for history, a deep sense of Dutch pride and an easy manner, Marten is an enthusiastic and personable host. We challenged him by asking to alter the tour plan at the last minute to accommodate avoiding things that we had already seen. He graciously and seamlessly adapted to our request and we spent an easy three hours walking and talking. We would recommend Marten highly to anyone seeking insight into the fascinating history and contemporary life of the Netherlands.

Olga was a fantastic guide! We toured Zaanse-Schans with Olga and we had a great day. She was as very informative and fun! She was also very kind as my mother is elderly and we needed a slower pace. She went above and beyond!
